Supreme Sword God

Chapter 96: Chapter 95: Origin Silenced, Testing the Poison with My Own Body

At this critical moment, Ye Chen used the mysterious hot flow within his body and entered a true state of Spirit Warrior unity!

Doing this.

It was not a decision made on the spot.

He had thought of this idea before when using the mysterious hot flow to perform the Heaven-Ascending Step.

It’s just that he had never tried.

Afraid of killing himself in the process.

But now, given the situation, there was nothing to worry about. Just do it!

Spiritual Power, Sword Essence, Qi Blood, the three forces merged, bringing Ye Chen immense power. He felt a torrent surging within him.

”Break for me!”

A loud roar erupted from Ye Chen’s mouth.

The force of the spiritual imprint that suppressed him, making him unable to move, instantly dissipated.

The spiritual imprint projection in the air, cracks appeared intricately.

The Celestial Sword Sect’s Tier Four Spirit Master woman controlling the imprint suffered a backlash, blood spurting from her mouth and nose.

And the hand of the middle-aged man of the Primordial Wheel Realm from the Celestial Sword Sect that was striking towards Ye Chen’s face moved as if it were stuck in a swamp, slowing down.

Ye Chen grasped his sword with both hands and suddenly slashed forward!

”Swish!”

The fierce sword light erupted to the extreme.

The swift and unmatched sword cleaved at the incoming hand.

The hand split in two.

Following that, the arm exploded apart.

Ye Chen flipped his wrist, changing the sword move in mid-air and sweeping out.

The Celestial Sword Sect’s Primordial Wheel Realm middle-aged man’s body was cut in half from the chest!

Ye Chen kicked the ground, shooting forward like an arrow leaving the bowstring, leaving a deep trench in his path as white airwaves rolled behind him.

The Celestial Sword Sect woman whose spiritual imprint projection was damaged forcibly endured the backlash, controlling the returning imprint projection, unleashing a strong defensive glow.

Ye Chen, in the state of human-sword unity, charged directly at the glow.

The glow shattered.

Ye Chen and the sword passed through the woman from the Celestial Sword Sect, and then stopped.

Behind him.

The woman from the Celestial Sword Sect had turned into a blood mist.

Ye Chen’s whole body seeped blood.

The temporary state of Spirit Warrior unity dissolved within him.

It wasn’t that he dissolved it himself, but because his Sword Essence and Qi Blood, including Spiritual Power, couldn’t hold on, more accurately, the merged forces had collapsed.

Ye Chen’s skin was bleeding all over.

Blood dripped to the ground.

A bitter smile emerged at the corner of Ye Chen’s mouth.

Injured severely again!

Since the calamity at the Ye Family in Qingyun City... in less than two months, the number of severe injuries... can’t be counted on one hand.

”The mysterious hot flow... has disappeared!”

Ye Chen suddenly noticed an extremely serious problem.

Every injury used to accelerate the mysterious hot flow, but now, it was nowhere to be found!

”Could it be, just as Elder Qingyi said, that my physical origin has been over-consumed? And then, my physique can’t truly awaken?”

Ye Chen’s heart tightened, he immediately transmitted to Luo Qingyi, conveying his situation.

”I can’t determine what’s happening now, it could be over-consumption, your physical origin is self-protecting, sealing the mysterious hot flow, the worst case is that the physical origin has already been exhausted.”

Luo Qingyi’s response echoed in Ye Chen’s mind.

”Regret it?”

”No, even if there’s no chance for my special physique to awaken again, I don’t regret any choice I’ve made recently. Even without the support of a special physique, I can still become strong, I believe I can do it!”

Ye Chen felt no loss or gain, and immediately walked to Wu Ying’s corpse, searched it thoroughly, found nothing, and then took the Storage Ring from Wu Ying’s hand.

Initially, when he killed Wu Ying, he thought nothing of it, just carried the corpse away. Now he realized, just take the things, what’s the use of the corpse?!

The Celestial Sword Sect’s Primordial Wheel Realm middle-aged man had no Storage Ring, and nothing valuable on the body.

But the Tier Four Spirit Master woman did have a Storage Ring, Ye Chen took it and continued heading back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.

On the way back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, Ye Chen used the last bit of Spiritual Power to erase the remaining imprints on the two Storage Rings and inspected them.

Bottles and jars aplenty.

He couldn’t differentiate which ones were deadly poisons among the senior brothers and sisters, so he had to give the Storage Rings to Brother Fatty for identification.

If... these two Storage Rings don’t contain that kind of deadly poison, then he’ll kill his way back to Feijian Martial Arts Hall in Unrivaled County!

A moment later.

On Ye Chen’s way back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, another Celestial Sword Sect Primordial Wheel Realm Martial Artist appeared.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth. Even though he was very weak, he had to fight!

He had to quickly return the strange deadly poison.

At this moment.

The ground rumbled.

The soil and rocks flew, forming a dragon form of dozens of meters long.

”Earth Dragon Slash!”

A shout erupted.

The earth and rock dragon roared, charging towards the person obstructing the way of the Celestial Sword Sect.

”Boom!”

The earth and rock dragon collided with this person and exploded.

Ye Chen gathered what little remaining strength he had, passed through the storm, and slashed at the brow of the person sent flying.

Another Primordial Wheel Realm Martial Artist died under Ye Chen’s sword.

Ye Chen looked not far away.

A thick-browed youth holding a black greatsword also looked at Ye Chen.

”Sorry, I’m a bit late.”

The person who spoke was from the Star Martial System, Luo Tian.

Ye Chen nodded.

”Thank you!”

There weren’t many words exchanged.

Time was running out, and there was no need for them.

Such sentiments are better kept in the heart than spoken in flowery language.

With that, Ye Chen picked up a storage ring from the ground and continued on his way back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.

Fortunately, he encountered no more roadblocks along the way.

Ye Chen returned to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy smoothly and headed straight for the Star Pill Department. On the way, he met a disciple of the Star Pill Department and asked for Fatty’s whereabouts, then immediately went to find him.

”Bang!”

The door to Fatty’s residence was slammed open by Ye Chen.

Inside, Fatty’s expression was grave, surrounded by a heap of bottles and jars, with several drops of ominously green poison blood suspended in the air by strands of force.

Seeing Ye Chen burst in, covered in blood, Fatty immediately flashed to his side to support Ye Chen, who was about to collapse.

”Brother Ye, what happened to you?” Fatty asked.

Ye Chen extended his right hand, palm open, revealing three storage rings.

”Brother Fatty, quickly check if there’s any deadly poison in here!”

Understanding the urgency, Fatty quickly emptied the contents of the storage rings onto the floor, opening the bottles one by one, and observing them closely.

After a moment of searching, Fatty’s face lit up with excitement as he held a jade bottle, saying, ”Found it!”

”Hurry!”

Ye Chen urged.

Fatty grabbed the jade bottle, returned to the array of bottles and the floating drops of poison blood, and began separating the poison, intending to decipher its detailed formula.

Ye Chen watched silently from the side, enduring dizziness and refraining from disturbing Fatty.

A moment later.

The drops of poison blood floating before Fatty suddenly exploded.

Frowning, Fatty looked at Ye Chen and said, ”Brother Ye, I need more poison blood!”

”Alright, I’ll go to the Spiritual Martial Department and get some more.”

With that, Ye Chen strode off.

Just as he reached the doorway,

he suddenly collapsed to the floor unconscious.

”Brother Ye!”

Fatty’s heart tightened as he rushed to the door.

By this time, an elderly man with white hair and naturally drooping, snow-white eyebrows was already standing at the doorway.

”Elder Bai Mei!”

Fatty recognized Elder Bai Mei immediately; his distinctive features were unmistakable.

Elder Bai Mei nodded, and a gentle force flowed from his body, lifting Ye Chen into the air.

Then, Elder Bai Mei produced a pill, placing it in Ye Chen’s mouth, and with a wave of his hand, sent the unconscious Ye Chen to the bed in Fatty’s room.

”This brat’s body was nearly torn apart. Strange, what did he do to end up like this?” Elder Bai Mei frowned, puzzled.

”Is Ye Chen’s condition serious?”

”It would be serious for most people, but for him, it’s typical. He’s always getting injured but quickly recovers each time,” Elder Bai Mei remarked before turning to Fatty. ”Dare you touch such a deadly poison?”

Fatty replied, ”Why not?”

With a wave of Elder Bai Mei’s hand, several drops of poison blood flew out from his sleeve.

”I just came from the Spiritual Martial Department. This poison is tricky and not the work of the Celestial Sword Sect; it’s likely from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect,” Elder Bai Mei observed.

Fatty’s eyes flickered with understanding.

He knew the implications behind those words.

The Ten Thousand Poison Sect is a core force within the Sect Alliance, and this poison is clearly designed to target practitioners of Spiritual Martial Unity.

This means the Sect Alliance has long been looking to suppress those practicing Spiritual Martial Unity.

In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, only a handful of people practice Spiritual Martial Unity.

This poison, which must have taken a long time to concoct, cannot be for dealing with Yuan Polu, Liu Meng’Er, or the newly emerged Ye Chen.

Only Yang Tianji or Hua Qianxue would warrant such efforts!

Yang Tianji and Hua Qianxue’s identities are deeply involved.

This poison is backed by an abyss!

”Elder Bai Mei, do you have a solution?” Fatty asked.

Elder Bai Mei shook his head, saying, ”It’ll be difficult in a short time.”

”Understood.”

Fatty turned back to his table, picked up the bottle of poison, and suddenly drank a mouthful of the toxic liquid!

Elder Bai Mei’s expression changed dramatically!

”You brat, what are you doing!”

Grinning, Fatty replied, ”Elder Bai Mei, you’re one of the top alchemists in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even you don’t have a solution, so I have to use the dumbest way by testing the poison on myself. Only by understanding its properties can we find a way to detoxify it.”

With a solemn expression, Elder Bai Mei remarked, ”I didn’t expect you to be so dedicated in this area.”

Fatty smiled, looking at the unconscious Ye Chen on the bed, and said, ”This poison is something he risked his life to bring back. He didn’t seek help from others but came to me. Do you know why?”

”He discovered your identity?”

Even Elder Bai Mei was curious. Why would Ye Chen come directly to this young fatty? For such a significant matter, any respected Pill Master of the Star Pill Department would have agreed to help.

Fatty responded, ”He doesn’t know my identity. He came to me because... he considers me a friend. He trusts me, and I cannot betray that trust.”

After saying these words, the poison had already taken effect on Fatty, and he dared not delay any longer, continuing his research!

Beside him, Elder Bai Mei observed Fatty intently.

”Aren’t everyone from this family a sly old fox?”

”Could this chubby fox not be born into their family?”

”To be so honorable!”
